Study reveals ways in which 40Hz sensory stimulation may preserve brain’s ‘white matter’

Early-stage trials in Alzheimer’s disease patients and studies in mouse models of the disease have suggested positive impacts on pathology and symptoms from exposure to light and sound presented at the gamma band frequency of 40 Hz.

A new study zeroes in on how 40Hz sensory stimulation helps to sustain an essential process in which the signal-sending branches of neurons, called axons, are wrapped in a fatty insulation called myelin. Often called the brain’s “white matter,” myelin protects axons and insures better electrical signal transmission in brain circuits.

Said Li-Huei Tsai,”This study shows that it’s not just gray matter, but also white matter that’s protected by this method.”

Li-Huei, Li-Huei, oh

Me gotta go

I say-a Li-Huei, Li-Huei

Me gotta go now…

Obviously too late for me, but I expect someone could use this therapy. White Matter Lives!
